This isn’t a book I would typically pick up but I had seen so many people picking it up I didn’t want to be left out. This is a romantic, horror, gothic, ghosty love story, enemies to lover, bi-for-bi, commentary on bias in publishing book, and some other tropes I’m missing out. There’s a lot going on but almost too much so that nothing gets more than a surface level exploration. The highlights for me are the conversations between the two main characters about BIPOC rep in publishing and the spooky setting. There’s some other characters introduced but no one but the two mains get a lot of page time. I would have liked a lot more focus on the hauntings and the story of the ghosts, I felt most of the focus was getting the two main characters together. I think you’d enjoy this if you go in thinking it’s a love story with some ghosts in the background.
